Precisely.

If someone explicitly chooses that option we can turn off the reordering 
in hw-doloop. That should happen sufficiently rarely that it isn't a 
problem. That's what the patch below does - bootstraped on x86_64-linux, 
tested there and with bfin-elf. Ok?

Maybe. It could be argued that the code in hw-doloop is relevant only 
for a small class of targets so it should only be enabled for them. In 
any case, that's not stage 3 material and two ports are broken...

Hi Bernd,

    The patch is OK to me. But do we need reorder_loops for the c6x backend ? 
	I mean we can set the do_reorder parameter to FALSE to save compile time, since c6x backend only choose hw-doloops whose body contains only one basic block.

Cheers,
Felix

Ok, looks good to me.

Ok, that makes sense. Thanks, Teresa

Yes.  This is fine.

Looks like I got sufficiently distracted by travel and other things that 
this never got checked in. Now fixed.

Patch

	* cfgrtl.c (cfg_layout_initialize): Weaken assert to only trigger if
	flag_reorder_blocks_and_partition.
	* hw-doloop.c (reorg_loops): Avoid reordering if that flag is set.
